Morning all,

I'm looking for a deep red carpet like that can be found in the Mini 30 special edition.

I've found this one at Mini Sport but it doesn't have a cross-member piece. Does anyone know of any other vendors who do this off the shelf?

Thank you.

The real deal not cheap but so worth it! The fit is spot on.

I know you said 'like' the carpet in a Mini 30, so maybe what I'm about to say is moot. But anyway, the thirty's carpet didn't go over the crossmember, well mine didn't other than the 3 inches closest to each door. Which presumably is those small trapezium sections in the minisport ad.

Thank you for replies.

Indeed you are right about the 30 and the cross member. It was mainly the colour match I am looking for.

Newton commercial is tempting, fit looks great in your picture....I'm after a few other interior pieces so I'll see how much I have to spend on those first.

Correct as far as a I know too.

No standard Mini had a fully carpeted crossmember until the MPi with its one-piece carpet I don't think.
